Naun, FRBR Principles Applied to a Local Online Journal Finding Aid

Filed under: Papers — William Denton @ 7:13 am

Chew Chiat Naun, “FRBR Principles Applied to a Local Online Journal Finding Aid,” in Library Resources and Technical Services, 51:2, April 2007.

Chew explains an initiative at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign that produces an Online Research Resources (ORR) registry, an online journal finding aid that uses data feeds and a locally-developed system to offer users a supplementary catalog for online resources. He considers the treatment of work-to-work relationships, as embodied in FRBR, in relationship to the ORR.

I haven’t read it, but I see that Mark Lindner read it in April. He’s a student at Shampoo-Banana, where Naun is a professor.
